Explanation:

.454 kilograms= 1 pound.

Multiply .454 by 160

4.54

160

--------

000

2724 0<--Place marker

45400<--Double Place Marker

- - - - - - - -

72640 <-- Add

To find decimal point, count decimal place (Number of digits after the decimal on both numbers you multiply together) In this case, it's 2 ( 5 and 4 in 4.54) So, you count two spaces from right to left in your answer and tah dah!

72.640 (Zero isn't needed- just a placemarker)

Hope I was helpful :)
